God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Bread magnifies Christ in two ways: by being eaten with gratitude for His goodness, and by being forfeited out of hunger for God Himself. When we eat, we taste the emblem of our heavenly food – the Bread of Life. And when we fast we say, “I love the Reality above the emblem.” In the heart of the saint both eating and fasting are worship. Both magnify Christ. Both send the heart – grateful and yearning – to the Giver. Each has its appointed place and each has its danger. The danger of eating is that we fall in love with the gift; the danger of fasting is that we belittle the gift and glory in our will-power.

Review: Chopped green chili peppers and black beans turn thisdinner into a
south-of-the-border fiesta! Serve with a tossed salad.
Cube the chicken. Sprinkle with the black pepper and salt (if using).
Coat a large no-stick frying pan with spray. Add the chicken and cook over
medium-high heat for 5 minutes, or until the pieces begin to brown.
Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
In the same pan, combine the oil, onions, garlic and 2 tablespoons of the
broth. Cook, stirring frequently, for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the onions
are soft.
Add the tomato sauce, beans and remaining broth to the pan. Stir to mix
well. Add the chili peppers, chili powder, cumin and reserved chicken.
Bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is tender
and the liquid has thickened.
Taste the sauce. If it's acidic, add the sugar. Serve with the rice.
